Shame's Lie

The shame was relished
when met with wanting eyes
How I longed to be held
and open up for sexting blighs

When every thought I had to have was..
trust for shaming eyes
When ever trust I knew to see
was faith for moving thighs

When all at once a voice would say
don't move for what comes by
When at that time were fates what made
more safe come back for time

As at that light was one response
more plates come back to dine
When in that Hell more words go by
than sakes claw back on line

When everywhere each person's reach
brocks back for each to rine
Is everywhere each hopes the least
tore out from beast oblign

And every hope
all lost to man
unqueath
you'll cost to clan

When every time you waited for
was blessed more plate to find
When every fall where plate could tyne
was placed on death for kind

And calling all who feel the shame
to come down to the pain
When even love's past half that mind
And most flee post-bast bain
